Japanese Title (邦題)： 「心に火を灯す」末尾に

 

Light up your good and old memory

Good morning to the World and Kanmon!

We went out to conclude various events of new year REIWA 2nd (2020).

There are good and old Japanese lifestyles are still surviving here. It used to be familiar, but get lost in fast moving present time flow and flood of massive digital information.

The materials in fire were new year decorations of each family which contains family members wish and pray for sound health and well‐being of each family. Burning them around 15th of new year month is a custom of Japanese people. We can trash the decorations on garbage collection day, but I cannot stand it, because I feel that I am trashing my wish and pray into garbage box.

Don’t you come here to light on your nostalgic memories which are forgotten/hidden in the very deep part of your heart. (It may be valuable experience for tourists from foreign countries to touch fundamental but familiar culture in authentic Japanese life.)

Thank you and you have a nice day, not to trash your wish and pray.

心に火を灯す

世界中に朝が、そして関門にもあさが来ました。
おはようございます。

令和二年の年末年始の行事を締めくくるため出かけてきました。

めくるめくようにまわる日々の時間や膨大なデジタル情報の流れに押し流されて、忘れ去られそうな古き良き日本がココにはあります。

今年令和二年の無病息災・家内安全の願い・祈りが込められたお正月のお飾り、、、「燃えるゴミ」収集車経由〜清掃工場の焼却炉で「お焚き上げ」するのも間違いではないですが、、、「願い・祈り」と「ゴミ」とを同格に扱うのは、自分にはどうしても抵抗があります。

心の奥底にしまい込まれている、どこか懐かしい記憶の灯りに火を灯してみませんか？

それでは、自分自身の願いや祈りを正しく扱い（ゴミ化せずに）素敵な一日を！
